use Viewbag
as

SQL

public ActionResult PPEntry()
       {
           ViewBag.ddlData = new FillMaster().GetddList();
           //your model code
           return View(model);
       }

in your View

Select Block <select id="ddlMaster">
           @foreach (var item in ViewBag.ddlData)
           {
               <option value="@item.ID">@item.STATE</option>
           }
       </select>

Solution 2

As the Model is only a class.. You can use that class property inside you current Model which you are referring in the View and use that other model class property to assign the values in your drop down..
Hope this helps..!
